(Anadolu) The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) condemned billionaire Elon Musk on Sunday for a comment on X that it says fuels Islamophobia and endangers American Muslim communities.
The criticism came after Musk appeared to support a post falsely labeling Muslim and Arab-American groups as “terrorist organizations.”
In his comment, Musk, an adviser to President Donald Trump, said: “As many people have said, why pay terrorist organizations and certain countries to hate us when they’re perfectly willing to do it for free?”
Responding to Musk’s remarks, CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad wrote: “Elon, baselessly labeling law-abiding American Muslim organizations as ‘terrorist’ is reckless and dangerous.”
